Bellshill (ward)


Bellshill is one of the twenty-one wards used to elect members of the North Lanarkshire Council. Created in 2007, it originally returned three councillors, covering part of Bellshill, with the northern boundary at the A8 and the western boundary at the A725 bypass; much of Strathclyde Country Park was also assigned to this ward.
A 2017 national review caused the territory to be altered, with a minor change within central Bellshill moving the eastern boundary to Motherwell Road, and a shift of the western boundary further towards Viewpark to encompass the Fallside neighbourhood. These changes caused an increase in population, with one additional seat allocated. In 2019, the ward had a population of 14,969.
